1. Keep your good work.
2. Check before leaving (I bought full moong dal instead of broken).
3. No one will respect you unless you respect yourself.

Three simple ways to rise in life
1. Do more than you are expected to.
2. Speak less than you are expected to.
3. Work out each time you are expected to.
How our environment impacts us
I usually read e-books on the Kindle device, instead of the app.
Few days back, I happened to open the Kindle app on my phone to show it to my Mom.
Since then, I haven’t closed the app, and I happen to read 2 pages daily.
We don’t need a new life. We simply need new hooks to the existing life.
Three truths of life
1. You always somehow know what is going to happen next.
2. Keeping yourself busy is the ultimate anecdote to keeping yourself free.
3. Procreate is a cool place 😊
The saint and the prostitute
There was once a saint who lived up there, in the mountains. To meditate. And think positive thoughts.
In the hut, just opposite to his, used to live a prostitute. Every day, she used to look at the saint and be inspired – as to this is how I should be living my life – filled with positivity, and thinking of God.
Meanwhile, the saint used to look at the prostitute’s house, and think about how she is ruining her life, how her life is terrible, and how he would never want a life like that.
Several years later, they both died.
Up in the clouds, it was decided that the prostitute will go to heaven and the saint will go to hell.
“Why, I was meditating whole day?” rebelled the saint.
Here’s what the administrators up there told them:
It is not what you do, it is what you are thinking about whole day, that makes the difference. While you were busy mocking the prostitute in your mind, she was busy idealising a meditative lifestyle.
It turns out, our thoughts actually run or ruin the world.
The First Therapy Session
Had the first therapy session today.
Who in the world talks about it openly?
Well, we haven’t been open, that is why we have been needing therapy 🙂
On that note, it felt a bit better. Even though it will take some time to heal unseen wounds of years, well, all is well that starts well. 😊
Signs that you are growing
1. The things that used to upset you do that anymore. Not even in your mind.
2. You learn from the times you lost money and don’t make the same money mistakes again.
3. You don’t lay the same expectations on people, if they have willingly proved they don’t want to stay true to the relationship (even blood relationships).
4. You find a way to laugh even amidst chaos.
5. You have replaced anger for people with empathy and sometimes even sympathy.
Growing up necessarily doesn’t mean in age. You may be in your 70’s and never learnt to control your anger.
Growth is a choice. The one that we make every single day.
In the absence of which, we just die.
Good things happen…
Good things happen when you don’t expect them to happen, and continue doing your hard work.
But hard work without smart work is donkey work.
Rather, working hard along with making your own way is the best kind of hard work that will yield results for you.
Making calculated efforts. Making better efforts. Working with effortless ease.
All of these, make good things happen 🙂
3 Habits That NEVER Go Out Of Style
- Saying thank you to everyone (PS: My email signature is “Thank you”, that I type every time instead of keeping it auto, because I wanna really mean it!)
- Having a schedule for your day (Even rest and leisure, otherwise Parkinson’s Law is wise enough :D)
- Speaking your truth, even if you are disliked.
5 things only rich people do
5 things only rich people do because poor people cannot afford to do them:
- Forgive others and themselves (the one who feels insulted is the one who has a ton of ego. The rich, forgive without being asked for it.)
- Taking care of their health as well as mind.
- Think of others
- Think of themselves
- Give without letting anyone know
Don’t you think so?
